special bag

I made this special bag to hold emergency items so I will always have them for tours and other trips. I made it out of an old pair of Franky's jeans. The zip is from her old coat and the toggle is from my old duffel coat and it has a padded lining too. Contents:

• TCP
• cotton wool
• sewing kit
• safety matches
• multi-tool
• paracetamol 
• plasters

All the items are inside plastic zip-lock bags for waterproofing. I'm really pleased I made this. I know it's kind of weird but it makes me feel confident.

oyster card

 

Do you have an Oyster card? Do you know what one is? It's the thing people use in London in order use London public transport at a more susidised rate. I had some felt left over from a tote bag project and made myself a special oyster card holder out of the scraps. I'm not saying this is an example of great craftsmanship but I was very pleased to have done it and I used my Grandma's old sewing kit too!
